The ease you show is a reflection of your inner integrity and peace. When you’re not at ease, listen to your emotions and intuition to get your perspective, making the effort to convey them honestly. The integrity and trust you establish within yourself will be apparent in your dealings with other people. Your attitudes will be picked up and interpreted by other people as a reflection on them, so be careful to communicate what you really value and be prepared to defend your position. This can often leave you feeling vulnerable.
As you relationships develop, it will be necessary to face the inevitable changes and transformations. As any involvement become more complex, realize you are changing as well, deepening your capacity to touch your inner power and understanding.
You have a strong awareness of people's reactions and sensitive to their demands. Beneath it all is your caring nature, and a deep desire to be included and accepted. This always involves walking the line between being complaisant and accepting things the way they are or trying to be more authentic and asserting your individuality. Finding a balance between the two will often define you. Knowing how to deal with people who are not open to any new ideas or attitudes is the challenge you face. This puts you in the middle, and your effectiveness depends on how well you can work these issues out for yourself, before you start involving other people. In the end, it’s standing up for the truth and coming up with a sensible way of dealing with issues of cooperation and trust that will serve you best.

You take your position with other people very seriously. The type of emotional commitment you make reflects your attitude about what is honorable and fair and what you are willing to do about it. Companionship and intimacy are very important to you. You often keep your very sensitive emotions to yourself. Only those who you absolutely trust will know how strongly you feel. In your more public life, you value objectivity and fair treatment for all. This can often result in you having to choose between your own personal feelings and your obligations. Having an insight of what you or other people need and then striking out on a sensible course of action to meeting those needs can be a tall order. There are times when you would rather retreat and escape into your own introverted world. Other times, you will speak about the absolute power of the truth, expecting everyone to back you up. What you really need is a way to balance the two. The way that you’ll do it is to develop a positive attitude about listening to your own heart and then learning how to use persuasion and tact to gain the consensus you seek.
Being overprotective about yourself or those close to you will cause more problems than it solves, although you occasionally need to get away and recharge yourself. The binds between you and family, close friends and community can be very strong and reflect your caring and compassionate nature. For this reason, you can be very vocal about your opinions and expectations. For you, mindlessness and resignation are no excuses for anyone failing to act responsibly and appropriately. You have a real social consciousness and know how difficult it is to be successful in society and have something of value to offer. You also know it doesn’t happen by accident. That’s why you struggle to be authentic with yourself and to pursue goals that reflect your beliefs that cooperation and tolerance are a necessary part of every successful initiative. The result of all of this is that you often are seen as the one who portrays your feelings and sensitivities publicly and raises the consciousness of other people to do the same.
Long term relationships are definitely part of your life style. They help to put your emotional life in perspective. You partner needs to be able to respond to you intellectually and occasionally challenge your position on the many issues you love to discuss. You are the type of person who is constantly on the go and having to slow down and listen, thinking about what you are going to say before you say it is a lot easier with people you trust and love. Your basic personality is loving and affectionate. Settling down to a stable family life can be very rewarding for you. You can become very attached to your children and can become over-protective unless you make a conscious effort to be otherwise. Learning to let go and allow them to be themselves is something you should strive for.
In the end, relating to the culture and values you are familiar with guarantees the continuance of a way of life you value so much. You’re the one who needs to bring freshness into those old forms and infuse them with your own inspiration and awareness. This often results in being able to rise above the limits of any particular set of values or customs, and be able to operate from a more objective perspective. This is your special talent, feeling the connections with the past and tradition while engaging people to see beyond the conventions and formalities, embracing the values and commitments they stand for.

You can be very intense and emotional, demanding attention and unwavering support, seeing through deceptions and intrigues, sizing up people and situations for potential threats and ultimately, for sources of inspiration to passionate nature. You want the truth and are willing to see past the promises and assurances to discover your own drives and motivations, buried deep within you. The world knows you as someone to be reckoned with. You can be very competitive, but do not often show your hand. Very security conscious, you know how to build up any reserves you may need before launching on some big undertaking. You’re attracted to dangerous situations, but do not often place yourself at risk, preferring to wait and see rather than rushing headlong into some commitment. You can be very stubborn when you want to be, often clinging to the past, but your longing for intimacy and love pushes you to let go of any unnecessary attachments and keep your undertaking vibrant and essential.
At the heart of it all, your demand that involvements be authentic often puts you at odds with people who cling to old habits and attitudes. This can infuriate you, especially when you feel held back by their inertia and forced to sacrifice for something you feel is not worth it. You take your commitments seriously and expect a lot from yourself and the people involved. Learning to forgive and move on holds a huge lesson for you. Without it, your outlook can become quite dark. Suspicion and resentment can take over. Instead of being tolerant and rising above the differences, you could shut down, turning your feelings off, with the exception of an occasional outburst of frustration or rage.
On the other hand, when motivated, your intuitive powers are amazing. You’re able to focus on what motivates people and operate at a very sophisticated level of awareness when dealing with other people. This has big consequences in business, where you can excel, and in love and romance, where opening up to love can be a transformational experience for you. You can be compassionate and concerned, while at the same time knowing how to draw boundaries and set limits; limits that you will enforce if violated. Loyalty means everything to you, for you are one of those people who is not swayed by the rhetoric or party line. You see thorough it all and are prepared to make a stand to insure your own safety and the safety of those you would defend. This can range all the way from a very open and inclusive perspective to a narrow-minded point of view. It all depends on how willing you are to evolve along with the world, balancing that with a determination to commit to the best for those close to you.
In some ways, you represent the struggles of the culture and society you came from. What makes you different is that you have the choice to see yourself as either being trapped by those circumstances or able to rise above them all. You have the potential of introducing change and overcoming all the resistance to it once you claim your own power and learn how to use it.
You love life is apt to be volatile because of you passionate and sometimes jealous nature. Love can be absolutely hellish or deeply satisfying to you. You mate needs to realize you are often irrational and are subjects to dark moods. On the other hand, you sheer intensity can be intoxicating and provide the necessary force to pierce through the inhibitions, revealing the love and compassion that lies within it. Children can be unnerved by your presence until they realize how protective and concerned about their welfare you are. Encouraging everyone to be themselves can be especially difficult for you. Much depends upon your own emotional maturity to feel safe and secure even when the world is going in another direction. Your strength lies in appreciating everyone’s uniqueness and knowing how to work with each person’s point of view.
